Anywayyy.... I can understand families being distant towards their children especially if and when they’ve been raised similarly (ie not raised but rather neglected and leaving the child to grow and develop on their own) BUT it doesn’t excuse their shitty behaviour lol dont be surprised if they want nothing to do with you if you’ve basically paid no attention to their existence the majority of their life. Naturally that would also potentially have an effect on socialising and how they interact with others, so if people were to think someone pathetic just from an outside view without considering WHY they’re that way, idk man that’s their own issue
